I'm here in the US and over 60 years old; and I just finished building the 1/72 VF1J operation bulls eye pt.2 from Hasegawa. I believed Macross will still in a lot of people's memory around the world.
For those of us old enough to remember, there was a time during the 70s, and 80s, where mecha anime had degraded to a cheesy trope of monster of the week and kids toy infomercials. The two shows that i think were revolutionary in modernizing mecha anime were kidou senshi Gundam with its complex characters and plot, and ofcouse Macross with its incredible character development and emotional asset. True legends in the genre
除了戰機,Macross的一大賣點是主戰艦,能化身成巨大機器人的戰鬥形態,那個年代是十分夢幻和熱血的。在電影 M 假如還記得愛(應該是它吧),我一直記得Macross以戰鬥形態逼降水系星球,穩定的下一刻便向宇宙發炮,整個人高潮起來了。Macross 7 主艦經常要撞擊,和各種奇怪的用途。而Macross邊境的主戰艦,是全系列中體積最小的(我記得設定是這樣)。
